Have you ever had students look forward to grammar? I didn’t either until I started using NoRedInk, which is a very student-friendly web application that gives learners a chance to practice and perfect grammar skills on sentences generated based on student interest profiles. NoRedInk can also be linked with Edmodo and used as an Edmodo App.

StoryBoard That is an incredible tool that students can use to create storyboards. Students can use these storyboards to get ideas for narrative writing, recreate historical events, and depict key plot events in a novel. I really like the idea of giving students multiple ways to demonstrate their learning, so using StoryBoard That as a possible alternative to traditional assessment has some appeal to me (and perhaps you too!).
